New England Patriots wide receiver DeMario Douglas is an intriguing fantasy option ahead of his Week 16 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. While Douglas was held to just three catches for 11 yards (plus one touchdown) last Sunday, he has a promising chance to bounce back in Orchard Park this weekend. This optimism is rooted in the Bills' subpar performances against slot receivers this season. Buffalo has allowed the second-most fantasy points to receivers in the slot, which bodes well for Douglas, who has played 400 slot snaps this season (fifth-most in the NFL). Plus, with the Patriots expected to be playing from behind, there should be no shortage of targets for Douglas this week. He's not a touchdown or big-play threat, but his impressive volume and favorable matchup make him a fringe top-36 fantasy receiver in PPR leagues.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Johnny Wilson (illness) is active for Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The rookie had been added to the injury report on Saturday, but it appears as though his status improved enough in time for him to suit up in Week 15. The Florida State product will likely operate as the Eagles' No. 4 receiver behind A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, and Jahan Dotson.
